home page they write about their way of spotting the situation of fall foilage:
"The Foliage Network was developed to provide accurate foliage information
for various locations across the United States.

During the months of September,
October, and November, The Foliage Network collects data from our foliage spotters
twice a week. This data is collected, plotted, and analyzed by The Foliage Network.

The end result is The Foliage
Network Report which is transmitted to newspapers, television stations, and
web sites. The Foliage Report uses actual data unlike other "reports"
which use annual averages. Please check your local newspaper to see the latest
report." The Foliage
